Making the Most of CGM: Uncover the Magic of Your Ambulatory Glucose Profile

[Northerner]

Having diabetes is a full-time job: you have to simultaneously monitor your diet, activity, stress, and even sleep. On top of that, you need to calculate and manage the number of carbs you consume in each meal, and keep careful tabs on your blood sugar levels. The Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) report, developed by the International Diabetes Center, is a tool that provides a simplified way to look at data on your blood glucose patterns and trends. It has been recognized as a standard of care for reporting continuous glucose monitor (CGM) data by the American Diabetes Association. In this article, we explain what an AGP report is and how you can use the information to help you navigate your diabetes management.

Libre provides it, as does Dexcom, and also Diasend I think. Medtronic hasn’t embraced it yet I don’t think.
